MrJohnson asked:


I’ll speak for myself, and say “Raindrops keep falling on my head”,
because I remember when it first came out in 1969, and I was just old enough at 7 to be hip to the hits on the top 40. It’s the second
song I commited all the lyrics to memory on. I still remember singing “raindrops” in second grade walking to school on a rainy day. How can you beat THOSE memories?
I remember, in the days in the late 60’s when people still gathered
around the piano, and sheet music was all over the top of it,
singing ALFIE along with the family.
I remember ALL the dionne warwick-sung ones when they first hit
on AM radio in the 60’s, except for “walk on by”.
I remember the kids liked the “what do you get when you fall in love” lyricss. That was what was so great about bacharach, his playful lyrics.
What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That’s what you get for all your trouble.
I’ll never fall in love again.
I’ll never fall in love again.

What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia.
After you do, he’ll never phone you.
I’ll never fall in love again.
I’ll never fall in love again.

Don’t tell me what is all about,
‘Cause I’ve been there and I’m glad I’m out,
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I’m here to remind you

What do you get when you fall in love?
You get enough tears to fill an ocean
That’s what you get for your devotion.
I’ll never fall in love again.
I’ll never fall in love again.

What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow.
So, for at least until tomorrow,
I’ll never fall in love again!
I’ll never fall in love again!

im speaking of the majority of people, but some will differ but thats your choice.

Music today seems to have no face, theres so much going on at one time that who sings what and when is unknown, i look back in my guinness world music book, and discover all these artists within the last 5 years that have had many top 10 hits all over the place, but WHO are they, you utube them and you still don’t get it. theres too much in the way of 1 time performers, and im sure greedy money has something to do with it, bring back the 70’s, 80’s and early 90’s anyday, can you remember how brilliant music was, will ANYONE remember todays music in 20 years, No, by the way im not old and passed it, im only 33, but im sick of todays rubbish music grunge and rap/hiphop. When will it change, oh well i guess i’ll never bore of my old time cd’s

How to play stereo music on a PC with Windows Vista, Creative Labs SB Live! 24-bit and 5.1 surround speakers?

Arhus asked:


I have a new computer with two soundcards. One is High-definition Audio integrated on the ASUS motherboard and the second is Creative Labs SoundBlaster Live! 24-bit PCI card. I use the SoundBlaster for a digitial audio input from my set-top box which allows me to hear audio from my TV, e.g. hear music broadcasted on MTV Hits channel. However, the music does not play on all of my speakers, it only plays stereo (left and right speaker, but no center, no subwoofer, no surround speakers). Music that is not played through the subwoofers lacks very much. Also all of my MP3 music is stereo only and Windows Media Player of Winamp play it on left & right speakers only. I have installed the latest driver from Creative Labs and I see I have Audio Console in my Control Panel. I switched the CMSS 3D on, but the music still does not get through the subwoofer. How do I enable bass redirection in Windows Vista for my SoundBlaster?

Did You Know That A Radio Station in Detroit, Michigan Named 93.1 DRQ Was Circumcised Against His Will?

Alex asked:


93.1 DRQ was a great American Top 40 Hit Music Radio Station until ABC/Disney Radio circumcised him on April 1st 2005 against his will. 93.1 DRQ was able to offer the metro Detroit area good music before he was circumcised. After 93.1 DRQ’s forskin got cut off during his circumcision he was no longer able to offer Detroit great music on the radio.

93.1 FM today is still circumcised, and he now offers Detroit so music that sucks because his forskin is gone, and his name is 93.1 Doug FM now, because his forskin is gone.

The same thing that happened to 93.1 FM DRQ happened to me.

I got circumcised as a child and I never found out that I got circumcised as a child against my will until I was 19 years old when I looked up circumcision on the internet and I saw pictures of the (not circumcised- intact penis ) and I saw pictures of the (circumcised) penis. My penis looked exactly like the penis on the picture of the circumcised penis, and I said to myself oh no! I Got Sad About It!
